Land use planning creates the preconditions required to achieve a type of land use that is environmentally sustainable, socially just and desirable and economically sound.
Zoning is the practice of dividing land into different areas for specific types of development, such as residential, commercial, or industrial. It is important for city planning because it helps regulate land use, control development, and promote the efficient use of land and resources. Zoning can also help create more sustainable and livable communities by ensuring compatible land uses and protecting property values.
Land use planning is necessary to manage and regulate how land is used and developed to ensure sustainable growth, efficient use of resources, and protection of the environment. It helps to balance competing interests, such as residential, commercial, agricultural, and conservation needs, and make informed decisions for the benefit of the community as a whole. Without proper planning, there is a risk of haphazard development, sprawl, and inefficiency in land use.
